When the business aspects of Rarity's career begin to dampen her spirits, she turns to her closest confidant, Fluttershy, for a sympathetic ear and It turns out that the pegasus has a very good idea about how to get her enthusiasm back. Unfortunately this sets Rarity on a crash course with emotions she had been trying very hard to keep under wraps. How will Ponyville cope when the prim and proper unicorn spends a summer giving in to her wilder, more passionate side? And how will Rarity cope when the desire to turn a friendship into something more becomes overwhelming?
Rated T for normalising alcohol use and unashamed Rarishy/Flarity shipping.
